Wrap-Up: The Red Empire Reading

Joe McKinney’s reading from THE RED EMPIRE AND OTHER STORIES at Kick Butt Coffee in Austin, Texas was a tremendous success! This was our first event, and we’d like to thank everyone who came out to hear Joe read “Eyes Open,” “Burning Finger Man,” and “Empty Room,” as well as talk about his writing process and how his experiences in the San Antonio police department have shaped him as an author.

Prizes were given, including The Red Empire, Attic Clowns by Jeremy Shipp, Via Dolorosa by Ronald Malfi, and prints of The Red Empire cover by and courtesy of artist Joshua Hansen. We couldn’t have been happier with the turnout, and we eagerly look forward to the next Redrum Horror event!
